We've been asked by Blossom Hill to find 100 Mumsnetters to try the new lower alcohol Blossom Hill Vie White or Rosé and feedback their thoughts.

Here's what Blossom Hill say:
"Blossom Hill is the nation's favourite wine*, and we're proud to be known for making taste enjoyment easy. We've benefited from decades of wine maker's knowledge and alcohol innovation expertise to deliver a quality tasting reduced alcohol wine based drink; Blossom Hill Vie 5.5%vol. With its elegant, light and fruity taste it is the perfect choice for those occasions when you'd like a drink without the higher alcohol content - like lunch or early evening.
NEW lower alcohol Blossom Hill Vie is available in White - with hints of citrus, pear and apricot flavours and Rosé - with a floral aroma, ripe peach and strawberry flavours. Both are v. elegant, v. delicate and v. tasty choices - Vie 5.5%. If you prefer a sweeter style drinks, then Vie is perfect for you. We think it's v. tasty, but would love to hear what you think!

apparently it means vineyard in Romanian.
hmm, whatever

JenniferHelen · 25/01/2013 16:44

Done! Fingers crossed x

ohforfoxsake · 25/01/2013 20:06

I would like to volunteer for Laithwaites wine club, Naked Wines, or or the like. My talents would be better suited to these, and I'd offer them for free. Selfless, see?

MumVsKids · 25/01/2013 22:54

When do we find out??

itsallinmyhead · 26/01/2013 14:17

Done. I think the bar thread idea sounds like a grand plan!

If I'm chosen, count me in. Grin

Just had email from Katie telling me the wine is on its way! Yay Grin

Sparklingbrook · 30/01/2013 12:19

I haven't. Sad

NiniLegsInTheAir · 30/01/2013 12:22

OMG I've actually been selected for this! Thought I had no chance. How sad is it that I nearly cried in the office when I read the email...Grin

Sparklingbrook · 30/01/2013 12:23

Envy Goes to check emails just to make sure.......

Tee2072 · 30/01/2013 12:26

Darn.

MildredIsMyAlterEgo · 30/01/2013 12:28

Sorry Sparkling Sad

Sparklingbrook · 30/01/2013 12:29

Well I got to test the Method washing stuff so I shouldn't really complain Mildred. I could go and buy some and do my own test. Grin

McNo · 30/01/2013 12:46

Excited to test :)

MissyMooandherBeaverofSteel · 30/01/2013 13:45

Yay I've been chosen too :)

KindleMum · 30/01/2013 13:52

Yes! Free wine on its way!

Fillybuster · 30/01/2013 14:41

:(

I wonder if my willingness to slag off be honest about sweet wine is why I wasn't chosen???

Another willing volunteer for Laithwaites, Virgin Wines etc etc here :)

SparklyVampire · 30/01/2013 14:45

Iv'e been chosen too!, yay free wine Grin

LiveItUp · 30/01/2013 16:20

Nothing for me either. Like you Sparkling, I did get the Method laundry liquid which I really liked couldn't drink it though

Snazzynewyear · 30/01/2013 16:25

Bah! I got nothin'.

BehindLockNumberNine · 30/01/2013 16:56

Yay, I have been chosen Smile

FanFuckingTastic · 30/01/2013 18:10

wewereherefirst · 30/01/2013 19:01

ClaraOswinOswald · 30/01/2013 23:03
